The Happiest Place on Earth!

On the weekend before Halloween, we went down to Disneyland.  It was our kids' second trip.  We had told ourselves we would go back to Disneyland when we had refinanced our home, so we were celebrating too.  We spent two days between Disneyland & California Adventure and we had a blast!  We were able to get a special assistance pass for the Buddy again, which was so helpful.  It basically got us into the FastPass line of every ride.  We really didn't wait more than 5-10 minutes.  It was also fun to see the park decorated for Halloween.  Here are some of our favorites:

The Buddy- rollercoasters!  He rode 15 in 2 days.  His favorite is big Thunder Mountain, but he also enjoyed California Screamin'!  He also loved to snuggle up to the characters.

The Princess - rollercoasters!  This was the first time she was big enough for some of the rollercoasters.  It was great to hear her squeal, holding up her hands the whole way.  Her favorite is Splash Mountain. 

Me - seeing my kids' smiles.  I went on Soarin' Over California & loved it, but my favorite was Toy Story Mania.

The Dad - going on rollercoasters with the kids, especially the Buddy.  His favorite ride was California Screamin'!

It was just great to spend some time as a family - the Dad's schedule has been very busy.  At Disneyland, the only thing we HAD to do was be together!
